Lake Argyle is designated as a RAMSAR Wetland. As such it is of international significance for an extremely large number and variety of birdlife. Over 240 species of birds have been recorded on or around the lake. At times individual flocks of certain species can number in the tens of thousands. Lake Argyle has also become known as one of the best locations in Australia to observe certain species that are often very difficult to find elsewhere. Some of these most sought after species that are commonly found include the Yellow Chat, Painted Snipe and the Long Toed Stint. A number of well-known birdwatchers regularly bring their clients to us, knowing that our experience and ability to find the sought after species is second to one.
